< Isaiah 21 >

1 The burden of the desert Sea. As the whirlewindes in the South vse to passe from the wildernesse, so shall it come from the horrible land.
KA wanana no ka waonahele o ka moana. Like me ka holo ana o ka puahiohio ma ke kukulu hema, Pela no kona hele ana, mai ka waonahele mai, Mai ka aina weliweli mai hoi.
2 A grieuous vision was shewed vnto me, The transgressour against a transgressour, and the destroyer against a destroyer. Goe vp Elam, besiege Media: I haue caused all the mourning thereof to cease.
He wanana weliweli ka i hoikeia mai ia'u; O ka mea e luku aku, e luku aku no ia, O ka mea i anai aku, e anai aku no ia. O pii, e Elama; e hoopuni aku, e Media: Ua hoopau wau i kona uwe ana a pau.
3 Therefore are my loynes filled with sorow: sorowes haue taken me as the sorowes of a woman that trauayleth: I was bowed downe when I heard it, and I was amased when I sawe it.
Nolaila i piha ai ko'u puhaka i ka eha, Ua loohia au i ke nahu kuakoko, E like me ke kuakoko o ka wahine hanau keiki; Kupaka au i kuu lohe ana, Makau no hoi au i kuu ike ana.
4 Mine heart failed: fearefulnesse troubled me: the night of my pleasures hath he turned into feare vnto me.
Ua kulanalana ko'u naau, Pihoihoi au i ka makau; Ua hoolilo oia i ka po o kuu olioli, I mea weliweli no'u.
5 Prepare thou the table: watch in the watch towre: eate, drinke: arise, ye princes, anoynt the shielde.
E hoomakaukau i ka papaaina, E kiai ka poe kiai, e ai, a inu hoi; E ala oukou, e na'lii, e kahinu i ka palekaua.
6 For thus hath the Lord said vnto me, Go, set a watchman, to tell what he seeth.
No ka mea, penei i olelo mai ai ka Haku ia'u, O hele, e hoonoho i ke kiai ma ka hale kiai, E hai mai oia i kona mea e ike ai.
7 And he sawe a charet with two horsemen: a charet of an asse, and a charet of a camel: and he hearkened and tooke diligent heede.
A ike iho la oia, he mau hololio kaua palua, He holo hoki, a he holo kamelo; Hooikaika loa iho la oia e hoolohe aku:
8 And he cryed, A lyon: my lorde, I stand continually vpon ye watche towre in the day time, and I am set in my watche euery night:
A hea mai la hoi ia, me he liona la, E kuu haku, ua ku mau no wau ma ka halekiai i ke ao, Ua hoonohoia no hoi au ma kuu wahi kiai, i na po a pau:
9 And beholde, this mans charet commeth with two horsemen. And he answered and said, Babel is fallen: it is fallen, and all the images of her gods hath he broken vnto the ground.
Aia hoi, hele mai kekahi mau hololio kaua, o na hololio papalua. Olelo mai la, i mai, Ua haule o Bahulona, ua haule; Ua hoohiolo oia i kona poe akua kii ilalo i ka honua.
10 O my threshing, and the corne of my floore. That which I haue heard of the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, haue I shewed vnto you.
Auwe kuu mea i hahiia, ke keiki hoi o ko'u kahua hahi! O ka mea a'u i lohe ai, no Iehova o na kaua mai, Ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Oia ka'u e hai aku nei ia oukou.
11 The burden of Dumah. He calleth vnto me out of Seir, Watchman, what was in ye night? Watchman, what was in the night?
Ka wanana no Duma. Hea mai no oia ia'u mai Seira mai, E ke kiai, heaha ko ka po? E ke kiai, heaha ko ka po?
12 The watchman saide, The morning commeth, and also the night. If yee will aske, enquire: returne and come.
Hai mai ke kiai, Ke hiki mai la ke kakahiaka, a me ka po hoi! Ina makemake oukou e ninau, e ninau no; E hoi hou mai.
13 The burden against Arabia. In the forest of Arabia shall yee tarie all night, euen in the waies of Dedanim.
Ka wanana no Arabia. Ma ka ululaau o Arabia oukou e moe ai, E na huakaihele o Dedana!
14 O inhabitants of the lande of Tema, bring foorth water to meete the thirstie, and preuent him that fleeth with his bread.
E ka poe noho ma ka aina o Tema, e lawe mai i ka wai, E halawai me ka poe makewai, Me ka berena e kakali ai i ka mea auwana.
15 For they flee from the drawen swords, euen from the drawen sword, and from the bent bowe, and from the grieuousnesse of warre.
Mai ka maka aku o ka pahikaua lakou e hee ai, Mai ke alo aku o na pahikaua i unuhiia, Mai ke alo aku o ke kakaka i lena, A mai ke alo aku o ke kaua ikaika.
16 For thus hath the Lord sayd vnto me, Yet a yeere according to the yeeres of an hireling, and all the glorie of Kedar shall faile.
No ka mea, penei i olelo mai ai ka Haku ia'u, Hookahi makahiki e koe, e like me ka makahiki o ka paaua, E pau no ka nani a pau o Kedara.
17 And the residue of the nomber of ye strong archers of the sonnes of Kedar shall be fewe: for the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it.
O ke koena o ka poe i heluia o ka poe akamai i ka pana, O na koa hoi o Kedara, e emi no lakou: No ka mea, ua olelo mai no o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
